Germany 1-2 England
Very good indeed for the England B team as its been called. Forget the debate on can Lampard and Gerrard play together, can Scott Carson play for England without stuffing up big time! The Captain quite rightly took the blame for the shambles as he should have cleared it, but why is he so feted by the press? He is neither our best player or a great ambassador for the sport yet the press as a rule view him as being the best thing about. Sadly a sign of the backwards nature of thinking about the game here where its more important for a player to have blood on his shirt and a bandage on his head rather than being able to think, keep the ball and pass well. Something that came up again when Argentina played Scotland, Terry Butcher a player from who JT could have been cloned was commenting on the hand of god, Maradona quite rightly said, who? Who indeed.
Still good stuff allround and maybe some of the first team might get dropped and give them a much needed kick in the arse.
